Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no setup required for the Bosmere Handy Scoop; it is ready to use immediately out of the packaging. Regarding compatibility, the scoop is intended for dry or loose materials; avoid using it for chemicals that might react with or degrade plastics. To maintain the life of your scoop, wash it with mild soapy water after use to remove any corrosive soil particles or food oils. Store it in a dry, shaded area to prevent long-term exposure to harsh UV rays, which can cause some plastics to become brittle over many years.
